assesses over and around my neck and throat,
continually exuding an offensive mass of
bloody matter disgusting to behold and
almost intolerable to endure. 1t is impossible
to fully describe my sufferings, as the case
was complicated with Chronic Catarrh. After
three years of misery, having been treated by
three physicians, | was worse than ever
Finally, on the recommendation of W J.
Huntley, druggist, of Lockport, was induced
to try Hoods Sarsaparilla And now, after
having taken twelve bottles, within the last
twelve months, the scrofulous eruptions have
entirely ceased, and the assesses have all
disappeared, except the unsigbtly sears. which
are daily becoming smaller by degrees. and

for religious error, adopt the policy |
of the inquisition, or to hang witches,
prosecute Quakers, and stone Univers-
alists, was scarcely justifable way Of
preserving the unity of the faith. Yet
this was the old price that men paid in
the past for having all men worship at
one shrine. That such methods no
longer reign, we should thank God and
take courage.
Mr.. Talmage is entirely correct, if
only for once. 1t is true that the world
never saw better or brighter age than
the present. Not only is this true with
reference to material progress, but it is
also true in all spiritual, moral and So
cial concerns. There are more, vastly
more devoted Christians, true, earnest,
self sacrificing men and women engaged
in Gods work o-day, in all the forms
of service for the uplifting of our race,
than ever before in the history of the
world. There are more souls strug-
Cling forward to the light, earnestly
inquiring the way of salvation there
is more self-sacrifice displayed in the
sacred cause Of religion, and all related
concerns, and there are as many affairs
reared, and prayers ascending to
heaven, as at any previous period of the
great day of Christian progress and adj
vancement. There are more noble deeds
wrought, as many noble words uttered,
as many Christian ambitions cherished
as at any period in the past. If the
past can boast of its heroes and mar
tyrs, its saints, and sages, and philos-
ophers, we can to-day, from out the
record of this high noon of the nine
teenth century, present a goodly list of
workers in Gods kingdom on the earth,
names destined to rank high in the cal
endar Of fame, and to grow brighter
and brighter even unto the perfect
day. We welcome all such hopeful, in
spring words as those of Mr.. Talmage,
and believe that they are calculated to
do good. We do not need the forbid
ding pessimism that is so frequently in
dulged in. Our confidence in the on
ward march of Christianity should give
us more faith and more of spirit of
cheerfulness in contemplating the grand
eur of our own age. The conviction of
its superiority over other periods rests
on evidence that is sufficiently strong
to warrant the most hopeful views. The
world is surely advancing and rounding
into the coming triumph of truth, love
and justice in all the earth. Let us
begin this New Year in faith.

GENERAL LoGAN's death is the sor-
row of the hour in the Nation. The
public were not prepared for the sad
event by any extended account of his
illness. Indeed, not until Saturday,
when the rheumatic affection under
which he had been suffering reached
his brain, did his family and physicians
fully realize his condition. General
Logan was soldier of established valor,
an active and powerful partisan lead
er, and his death removes one of
the most prominent figures in the his
tory of our generation. Again in the
presence of impressive death is the
voice of political dissension and contro-
versy hushed. Tributes to the brave
soldier of the civil war, and the honest
and plain spoken civilian, who served
his country in the Senate as fearlessly
as on the field of battle, abound on ev-
cry hand, his political enemies, as well
as friends, doing full justice to the
great qualities which marked his excep-
tional career. General Logan, it APP
pears, died poor man. The gratitude
of the Nation, illustrated in the case of
the other great captains of the civil
war-Grant, Hancock, Meade-will be
again, doubtless, invoked to make am
pie provision for his family.

GOOD NEWS comes from Oshkosh,
Wis, as we prepare our forms for the
press. The legal difficulty which ex-
listed in regard to the lot owned by the
parish-on which claim was held, and
in consequence transfer made to the
General Convention, and suit ordered in
behalf Of the parish has been AMIGA
bly, settled. Certain individuals inter
ested in obtaining a site for the new
government building have bought out
both parties to the suit. The General
Convention gets 81 ,435, which it will
hold in trust for the parish, less the
necessary legal expenses. The next
move, now that this troublesome ques-
ton is out of the way, is to see what
can be done toward securing new
house of worship for st. Johns parish.
A movement to this end will soon be
inaugurated. May success attend the
enterprise.

trate and speak out in condemnation of
the Outrageous lies" that our news
papers seem more and more inclined TO

paper practice of employing a class Of
men to beat the bush and bring in
"news" has reached pass that calls for
public protest. The composition is SO
sharp that the purveyors are not apy
